Schicker bottle refrigerator with haptics

This refrigerator is working with "Peltier" technology and not with refrigerant compressor and evaporator besides. In the Peltier technique, a special component is cold side and the other side is hot. In this case, a relatively large current flows at a low voltage. The temperature difference between the component halves is about 60 ° C, the heat must be dissipated resulting consistently. Inputs and Abschaltgeräusche as in the classic refrigerator does not exist. This device has a real temperature control and exhaust air fan runs at variable speed.

My first attempt to cool with a cheap device directly in the room drinks, was a disaster: The loud machine had barely cooling capacity, but it blew roaring warm air in the booth. For the cool six beverage cans that thing took about one day.

The second device costing more than doubled and was fed externally with a DC high-performance power supply in order to avoid the fan noise of the internal power supply. The cooling capacity of the fan was unregulated one dimension better, after two hours of two-room hot beverage cans were cooled to 10 ° C down. After two conversions with other fans, I had a neat cooling device, but without Anfassqualitäten and hakeliger door.

The "Krups JC 101810 Wine Cooler with wood floors black / stainless steel" here is a very different caliber: Very heavy design, the massive door with insulating closes tired with little effort. It cools sharply and is silent! During commissioning, you have to be prepared that once these freshly filled refrigerator must cool a day with high performance, before the number of kilograms net capacity are cooled down. The unit approaches the desired temperature control technology in the refrigerator, it will be much quieter. Depending on room temperature, this device whispers then only that door is opened to remove something, the fan runs only briefly goes high and the gradual return to the whisper mode. Built is a 92er fan, the control range is large.

Positive
+ Beautiful design and materials
+ Haptics, for example, the door
+ Lighted Thermometer
+ Condensate gutters in the ground
+ Cooling capacity

Negative
- Refrigerator lighting insufficient
- Technique visible through ventilation slots
- Energy demand by Peltier technology high

For the money you would get even a cheap compressor-free refrigerator in double size: Ugly, no haptics, poor temperature control (2-point controller), no thermometer, no viewing window.
